The Real Meaning Of ‘Privilege’

Canadian Friend excerpts Thomas Sowell on the subject of ‘privilege’ (which as it’s used today by leftoids translates in full to ‘white privilege’).

Our schools and colleges are laying a guilt trip on those young people whose parents are productive, and who are raising them to become productive. What is amazing is how easily this has been done, largely just by replacing the word “achievement” with the word “privilege.”

The Hivemind incantation of “privilege” is best viewed as a tacit admission by bitter losers that genes and heritage matter, as does self-discipline, and that they resent having been saddled with the polluted bloodlines of degenerates.

Or, if they are members of the white elite, ‘privilege’ becomes a cheat code to implicate the majority of whites who aren’t privileged (in the practical sense of the word) in a conspiracy of unfair advantage, which the elite hope will distract from their 1%er inherited advantage.

There are few modest talents so richly rewarded — especially in politics and the media — as the ability to portray parasites as victims, and portray demands for preferential treatment as struggles for equal rights.

I have become dissuaded from even using the “1%er” refrain, as when we refer to the elite were are truly talking more about the “0.1 or 0.01%”. the “1%” term is also obfuscated by Occupy Bullshit and the Snitch Al Sharpton, among countless others, to have a pejorative connotation and refer to anyone in the banking industry or anyone who can save money and not achieve massive credit card debt. Otherwise, spot on

I don’t walk through cancer wards at hospitals. Cancer is scared shitless of me. Happily, I have gigantic brass balls that go “KLANK!” when I walk, so cancer hears me coming and runs away like a scared little girl.

When you step back and simply look at it, it’s amazingly pathetic we’ve gotten to a point in the USA where the group that does the most work and pays the most taxes are then condemned for not being criminal bastards on welfare…

I notice that whites who moan about white privilege never seem to be willing to give up its benefits. We have to lower the bar in almost every area of society in order to accommodate low IQ, low future time orientation shitskins, who demand access without effort or achievement.
